Hello, I've created a fix PR for the issue with some comments.
Probably not necessary to merge, however since it isn't fix related to changing MSBuild code but rather to working with the .csproj files, this was the only place to put it to give it visibility.

My analysis of the solution and why I think it works is within the PR.

The proposed solution unfortunately doesn't seem to work in general, only in specific circumstances. I worked around this by no longer supporting consumption as a .NET project, only as a nuget package. Closing.
